Words for Wednesday is a moveable feast of word or picture or music prompts that encourages us to write stories, poems, or whatever strikes our fancy. This month, the prompts are being posted by Delores at Mumblings.

Here are this weeks prompt words:

tarmac, whine, lobby, vestige, dither, spark

and/or

enormous, jitters, dangle, stumped, bellicose and mangle.

Standing on the TARMAC, she listened to the WHINE of the approaching engines and tried to calm her JITTERS.

Remember, she told herself, this is just another BELLICOSE executive with an ENORMOUS ego, the kind that DANGLE a carrot to make you think you will be moving up, then MANGLE your hopes.

Once you get through today, this type of boss will be a VESTIGE of your past. Don't DITHER, put some SPARK in your voice, take her to the LOBBY and by the time you and the rest of the new people are done, she will be the one left behind, STUMPED about what happened and how.

You can do this!
